- Yep, It's just a tesla coil. Nothing too special.
Check the pinned comment's reply if you wanna know how to make one. Annnnd of course, SAFETY FIRST!

Could u please describe how you made this?
I'll try. Lol forgive me if it's a bit vague.
I made this tesla coil by just copying a random schematic from Google with a few minor differences. Turns out it's actually from this RUclips video: ruclips.net/video/Q1M2VBvOzLA/видео.htmlsi=w7jKta1SbkjblBWC
The differences were the components. Mainly the Ballast, The MOSFET, The Diode, The Capacitor, and the Two coils. Btw i bought all of my components from local electronic shops cuz i hate online shopping.
Ballast: Unlike what the schematic shown where two Fluorescent Lamp Ballasts in parallel were used to LIMIT the current. I instead used two 100w incandescent bulbs in series because i can't seem to find those ballasts and they're probably expensive.
MOSFET: Instead of an IRFP450, i went for the superior IRFP460 cuz the 450 doesn't even exist where i lived at.
Diode: Virtually all shops i've visited never has a single Ultra Fast type diode. So, i went for the 10a10 diode which works flawlessly.
Capacitor: From pure curiosity and a bit of experimentation, i've discovered that less capacitance will make the arcs bigger. So, i went for three 630v 0.27uF Polypropylene Caps (3 0.27uF caps = 1 0.81uF Cap tank).
Primary & Secondary Coils: The Secondary consists of 600ish turns of 'i forgot gauge or probably 26 awg' of magnet wire in a 3.5 in wide 13.5 in long PVC pipe. And the primary is just whatever, 5 turns of generic stranded wire.
And pretty much the rest is exactly from the schematic. So, yeah that's it. Works like a charm! Also, but careful if you wanna make one. I don't wanna see someone like you dying from this.
